Where Kontek Guard Booths Make a Difference in Facility Security

Security decisions at facility entrances happen quickly. Kontek guard booths are designed for locations where controlling who enters and exits a site matters.

These booths are more than simple shelters. They serve as security checkpoints that help guards manage vehicle flow, check credentials, and stay aware of what is happening around them.

Nuclear Facilities Hardened checkpoints designed to support high-security access control and perimeter monitoring
Manufacturing Plants Vehicle and personnel control at entrances, shipping areas, and restricted zones
